@Fake Susie

this is your map's testing channel! Post map updates here and remember to follow our mapper rules: https://ddnet.org/rules

I have tested it a bunch of times, however I had to buff some certain stages even though I wasn't ready to actually play the buffed versions yet, because I somehow wasted almost an entire day mapping this ;w;

Fake Susie 07/01/2023 11:58 PM

I'll update it tomorrow, because it's 2 a.m. already ;w;

Fake Susie 07/01/2023 11:58 PM

But it's done!

Fake Susie 07/01/2023 11:58 PM

And yes it has no checkpoints!

uronfire 07/02/2023 12:05 AM

this is not gonna cut it

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:05 AM

I'd recommend taking more time mapping your maps (I know from experience

). Maps can take weeks or even months to make if you want to try and get them released. I recommend looking at other recent solo maps if you want to get inspiration for parts, rather than just mapping simple platformer sections

uronfire 07/02/2023 12:06 AM

i don't wanna be rude but its not gonna make it atm

uronfire 07/02/2023 12:06 AM

tbh it looks like oldschool

uronfire 07/02/2023 12:08 AM

look at other solo maps to see what is getting accepted lately

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:13 AM

Tbh the thing that reminded me the most about this game was just for platforming... ;_;

uronfire 07/02/2023 12:14 AM

for something platforming wise u would need to make it more entertaining atm it just feels like oldschool

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:14 AM

So this is what Oldschool looked like...?

uronfire 07/02/2023 12:14 AM

well this map just reminds me of 2012 maps

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:16 AM

If you want to make maps around platforming, look at the map "Sunny Night" by Deeper for inspiration, it's a good platforming/hook precision map released recently

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:18 AM

Hmmm...I think I sorta got the similar results to osu! modding too when I then tried to mimic the older styles of it...

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:20 AM

(osu! is an entirely different game ik, but it has an editor and a more complicated nominating system or whatever...)

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:22 AM

cries in eternity for not being able to even get a map ranked

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:23 AM

Oh well.

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:23 AM

I am getting close though..

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:24 AM

I got 39 declines before my first release

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:24 AM

You'll get there eventually

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:25 AM

Well in osu! it's actually much worse... ;w;

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:25 AM

I think..

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:25 AM

Actually wait..

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:26 AM

ok nvm

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:26 AM

Anyways do you still find the touhou reference cool....? :3

@Fake Susie

If you wanna learn mapping, I would advise you to try making a co-op map (using freeze and teleport tiles rather than kill tiles) and getting familiar with how we expect a map to be structured by playing some more. That way you'll have a lot more possibilities for mapping, the most important thing is creating a nice player experience so there's no need to make things more difficult for yourself if you're a beginner.

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:37 AM

Hmmmm..yeah I still do not know how the teleport tiles work ;w;

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:40 AM

Match the numbers on these 2 tiles

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:41 AM

wait what about the number on the top..?

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:41 AM

That's how you switch the tele numbers

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:42 AM

So like you can make the red block show the number 2 or 3 or 4 instead of 1 like the yellow one?

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:43 AM

Yes that's how you make multiple areas have you teleported to different places

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:43 AM

Okay thanks!

popcorn181 07/02/2023 12:44 AM

Here's a little sketch on how checkpoint teleporters work if you want those instead

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:44 AM

ahhhhhhhhhh

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:44 AM

cool

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:44 AM

it does look quite long tho

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:46 AM

or that's just the image trying to tell me what to place at which order..

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:47 AM

Oh well that was literally day 2 of me playing the game, so yeah... =P

Fake Susie 07/02/2023 12:47 AM

Good night! I have to sleep ;w;

texnonik 07/02/2023 2:47 PM

taking CP and going to CFRM ( blue saves your movement speed , red resets your movement speed ) will tele you to CTO There is also tele from ( blue and red ) witch teleports you (tele) TO .( you don't need here taking CP but it will always tele you and same TO )

texnonik 07/02/2023 2:53 PM

The map is to simple , also have skips . Play map tutorial it's good map and compare it with your map . Be creative with parts , look and play other released maps (except oldschool maps ) And try creating at least one good part and share with it so we could tell is it good part or not and you would continue making next parts .

Vappy 07/08/2023 5:03 AM

Hmmm nah lol

Vappy 07/08/2023 5:04 AM

Depends :)
